if it at the top of the page, just under the logo at the end, it says Log Out then you're probably logged in. 
Thanks, I'm Good To Go Then 
 
Hmm 
maybe have no approval of new threads, but give power to remove threads to the mods, maybe if a thread has not been deleted after 24 hours if cannot be deleted. This would let mods & the users decide a threads fate relatively quickly. 
 
deletion is bad, and if people start talking on the thread, it's not easy to move it without losing the posts. 
Is It Possible To... 
...get an "edit post" button/link? 
No... 
the best you can hope for is a "preview post" button/link.

Maybe you could just have a js popup warning people when they didn't close their q tag and probably suck at teh InTerNet.

Hm... What Makes That Link Work Then? 
Doesn't Work For Me... 
I get a DNS error. 
Oh I See... 
hmm, i'm not sure exactly.

I did make a change about 2 days ago to allow hyphens as word breaks. So-a-long-string-like-this-no-longer-gets-truncated-by-the-board. But that URL only has one hyphen, so it should still get truncated. Maybe my new regular expression doesn't actually do what i thought it did :P

Wow 
... it works fine now ! 
Well, No... 
since you can't abuse it as a long line as you wrote gets broken up anyway. 
Hmmm 
I'm thinking IE and Firefox disagree on at what point a hypen gets to cause a line-break and when it gets to push out the container. 
Push: 
is that just speculation or something you noticed?

no long strings allowed in titles! FOR SHAME!... really, it already limits length! 
Hm... 
mozilla does that too.

It was idle speculation because I was at work. I just confirmed it now though. IE breaks post #458 where you intend, but firefox doesn't break it at all. I assume you're not useing the nobr tag.

necros: firefox and moz both use the gecko renderer, and are essentially the same thing. The only difference is that mozilla was a hogde podge of things that didn't belong together inherited from the Netscape project. Firefox is an attempt to set things right. I can't fathom why anyone would use IE though. 
Masochism, Pushplay, Sheer Masochism 
;) 
Ah, Cool. 
i don't know much about the whole firefox and mozilla developements, i just keep it around for times when IE breaks down. ;) 
Hmm... 
so, firefox doesn't break words on hyphens. I guess that means i have to truncate long words even with hyphens.
